HC Deb 17 March 1943 vol 387 c1194W
Mr. Thorne

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he can give any information in connection with the Home Guard officer, Lieutenant Jack Moffat, of St. Saviours Road, Leicester, who was killed by a mine which blew up during a river exercise; and will compensation be paid?

Mr. A. Henderson

This accident is the subject of a court of inquiry and I will communicate with my hon. Friend when its proceedings have been received. The question of compensation is for my right hon. Friend the Minister of Pensions.
